The
traditional Punjabi food in Amritsar makes our stay here quite
delightful. It offers both vegetarian and non-vegetarian delicacies.
Simple, delicious and healthy are the right words used to describe
Punjabi foods. The sweetmeats, pickles, murabbas, and spicy dishes
accompany your meals and add flavor to them.

curry. However, wheat is extensively used in the Punjabi cuisine than
rice. Different kinds of wheat breads such as naan, tandoori roti,
kulcha, lachha paratha, and rumali roti are served here.

(cumin flavored rice), dal makhani (rajma and urad dal curry), Sukhi
